I feel like replying “you first.” You’re the one making all of these claims about how the FBI is involved in suppressing domestic political movements, and your only example is a raid that happened in the seventies.
COINTELPRO includes more than one example. Do you think that the FBI stopped doing their job immediately after the Church Committee hearings or that they kept doing their job but it made no difference?
The Wikipedia entry says Carter specifically banned political assassinations, which by omission implies a considerable remaining mandate to do COINTELPRO and MKULTRA style stuff.
Do you have any specific arguments to offer here?
